The "Noisy Cricket" of vibrators: tiny, cute, and packs a whallop!

A super-powerful, ergonomic, and well-designed toy that would be our all-time favorite if it weren't for the noise. Need a powerful vibe and don't have kids, parent, or roommates in the house? This is the toy for you!

On it's low setting this actually makes a pretty decent back massager (I just tried it while writing this review - very relaxing!), but we never, ever use it that way, since it's just too good as a clitoral vibe. While the flexible massager head is fairly big at 1 3/4" diameter, the Mrs. sometimes likes to penetrate herself vaginally with it a bit in the heat of the moment, and says the combination of strong vibration and fullness feels amazing!

The body of the toy is made of two materials: a glossy, smooth white plastic, and a softer, slightly textured pink plastic. The two-tone appearance looks stylish and well-designed, and the textured pink areas provides a secure slip-free grip. The head is made of a smooth, hard white rubber material, and it has five small grooves that ring the sides and can add some extra stimulation (Ha! But more on that later...), but unfortunately make it more difficult to clean, especially since this toy is not waterproof. While it seems to be non-porous, ours did pick up a bit of a blue mark when I used on the Mrs. through her jeans. Apart from a brief "hot circuit board smell" when we first turned it on, it has had no odor whatsoever.

We also have the Hitachi Magic Wand and the Fairy Pocket Mini, and we chose the Fairy Rechargeable so we could have something in between - easier to handle and maneuver than the Hitachi but with more power than the Pocket Mini. This toy fits the bill precisely and has exceeded our expectations. This thing looks and feels about half the size of the Hitachi, but with nearly the same power (if not more!) The Mrs. also really likes the adjustable speed dial; it lets her build up in intensity slowly as she's ready for it, as opposed to just flipping the Hitachi to "HI" which is just way too big a jump for her.

Sure, it's little and pink, but this thing is a monster! Super powerful and SUPER LOUD, like monster truck loud. By the time she builds up the intensity to where she can handle the high setting, she's totally manic and incoherent with pleasure - it's only time I've ever seen her really lose control. On high, the Hitachi is probable more powerful, but because of the high frequency of the vibrations she says it just "feels" more intense. My favorite quote from the Mrs. after using this thing is: "Whew!"

Unfortunately, the noise factor makes this toy hard to use in our small house with kids, and we only bring it out when we have a sitter. While it's small and discrete enough to pack for travel, we wouldn't dare use it in a hotel room, unless it were equipped with a blender where we could crush ice for Margaritas to cover the racket.

This toy is non-porous, but also not waterproof, so the best way to keep it clean is by using a toy-cleaning wipe. The grooves on the side of the head can be a pain to get really clean since they're so small, but using a condom over the head would make this a non-issue. As for storage, it's pretty small and comes with a cute drawstring bag to store it and its charger discreetly. We keep it in a bedside drawer next to the Pocket Mini, which conveniently share the same charger.

I was concerned before ordering it by some other review on the web which suggested that it lacked power and would not hold a charge. Thankfully this has not been our experience at all! I tested ours, and on a full (90 min or so) charge, it ran for 24 minutes on full power before shutting down, and much longer at lower settings.

I think the problem some people are having is that they're charging from a USB port using a cable sold by other sites. The AC adapter that EF sent with my Fairy Rechargeable says it supplies 600mA @ 5.5V, which makes sense because the toy says its battery is 5.3V, and chargers always supply more voltage than the batteries they charge. USB ports can only supply 5V, so it doesn't seem like you could ever properly charge the toy that way!
